Underneath the dark night sky and faintly glowing stars, a young teen walked down the streets of a huge city.947Please respect copyright.PENANAEyYXdolcLv
947Please respect copyright.PENANAWwXT364mlY
He sighed, pulling at his hoodie a bit to cover his face more, and he looked down at his blue, worn sneakers through blurry eyes.947Please respect copyright.PENANAvCKIHX5vxu
947Please respect copyright.PENANAIkSpFX5ry4
At this hour, it was safe to say most of the city was asleep, but he was wide awake. Mentally tired, but he was wide awake. He didn't feel sleepy at all, and he wouldn't dare close his eyes right now.947Please respect copyright.PENANARD841aIypq
947Please respect copyright.PENANAVotCJhXCdY
Not after that fight. If you could even call it that.947Please respect copyright.PENANAXfoVd2FVjD
947Please respect copyright.PENANArwSJyJ1e6M
The teen held back a sob, rubbing his arm against his face to get rid of the tears. He just wanted to forget right now. It'd be good for his anxiety to just pretend he lived a different life for now.947Please respect copyright.PENANAM4393sTU47
947Please respect copyright.PENANACqhNGpeBUA
Then he quickly rushed into a small, run-down restaurant that stayed open even at night. Of course, the place was very empty, save a woman behind the counter and a young man at one of the few tables.947Please respect copyright.PENANA0Lf78iKcYk
947Please respect copyright.PENANAJpIFeH9Qc6
The teen sighed again, feeling a bit better in the warm room instead of the crippling cold air that somehow made him feel even more numb then he already was. He walked over to one of the tables--the one near the other teen--collapsing in it and pulling his hoodie back, revealing his black shaggy hair.947Please respect copyright.PENANAv6TVfOFdxf
947Please respect copyright.PENANAr5csWIXsYy
Then the woman behind the counter walked over to him. "What can I get you?"947Please respect copyright.PENANA1VwtLOrNf5
947Please respect copyright.PENANAwssxb8H5sn
The teen thought about it for a moment. He didn't feel like eating. And he didn't have much money on him. "Hot tea."947Please respect copyright.PENANARMtEvZ0HO0
947Please respect copyright.PENANAKjLob5mRl2
The woman nodded, walking off, and the boy near him glanced at him, "Your eyes look a bit red there."947Please respect copyright.PENANAfV0Ytr4wgi
947Please respect copyright.PENANA6YUAtVzaKj
"Its none of your business." The teen snapped, glaring at his table.947Please respect copyright.PENANAzy7u8mGRq0
947Please respect copyright.PENANAiT2d5E7qFC
"Its a bit late to be out and about, isn't it?" The other teen continued.947Please respect copyright.PENANA7L1GiATeyp
947Please respect copyright.PENANAjKf8xIh5LO
"I can say the same. And anyways, haven't you ever heard that you shouldn't talk to strangers?" The teen snapped again, this time glaring at the light brown, messy haired boy.947Please respect copyright.PENANA21CBWl9US8
947Please respect copyright.PENANAGXpxi1zeGy
The second boy laughed a little. "Well, when you can't even trust your family to not hurt you, does it even matter then? Plus, think about it, how would anyone make friends if they didn't talk to strangers?"947Please respect copyright.PENANA53gK0euEF4
947Please respect copyright.PENANAQMu3wcDJiQ
The black haired boy stared at him curiously, though didn't say anything, and the other boy didn't say anything else since the waitress walked back over, placing a mug of hot tea in front the black haired teen.947Please respect copyright.PENANAV4mLApDSqx
947Please respect copyright.PENANAnPJECgn59u
Though once she left, the brown haired boy stood up with his plate of some sort of cake with white frosting on it, walking over to the black haired boys table, sitting down.947Please respect copyright.PENANAJWC10kWLs9
947Please respect copyright.PENANAojtLqLhV4A
The black haired boy glared at him a little, though was curious on what he was going to do.947Please respect copyright.PENANAgzPW4Q2gAr
947Please respect copyright.PENANA7CVPwTZkAO
Then, the brown haired boy picked up a knife. The first teen widened his eyes, tensing slightly.947Please respect copyright.PENANAQzm3s0p8O0
947Please respect copyright.PENANARdrBjyPqbP
But then...the brown haired boy cut into the middle of his cake. "Hey, waitress, get us another plate!"947Please respect copyright.PENANACXTukBVoD0
947Please respect copyright.PENANAdn57vJcXQh
"Sure thing." The woman told him, grabbing up a small clean dish and walking over to the table, setting it down, and the brown haired boy transferred one of the pieces of the cake to the other plate, sliding it over to the other teen. "Relax, Stranger, I just ordered this cake, so its not like I had enough time to poison it." The second teen joked, glancing at the boy across him.947Please respect copyright.PENANA64qOxQMReD
947Please respect copyright.PENANA9ouE1Cp0q9
The black haired boy just stared at the cake in surprise. Was he...really going to eat that? Wasn't that...weird?947Please respect copyright.PENANAoi14L0Usk5
947Please respect copyright.PENANAuu4jrT7Km7
"Seriously man, sweets help calm the nerve." The brown haired teen told him as he started eating his slice.947Please respect copyright.PENANAh4mtjH9Uty
947Please respect copyright.PENANA7GDKuPa0ef
The black haired teen grabbed up a spoon that was on the napkin beside his mug, before bringing it over to his cake to cut a small bit off to start with. "Thank you..."947Please respect copyright.PENANAa3Xlfw4n8G
947Please respect copyright.PENANANZ69XFAzR1
"No problem. So, do you...want to talk about it?" The teen asked him carefully.947Please respect copyright.PENANAvHgJakSmmR
947Please respect copyright.PENANAeL997caCsC
The black haired boy glanced down into his mug, looking at his reflection, and when he didn't answer the teen, the guy shifted, sighing slightly. "I mean, we're strangers, bound to never meet again, and we both have our problems, so we might as well get it off our chests, since I'm sure you have no one to talk to, and I don't either."947Please respect copyright.PENANASoRDQNSZzA
947Please respect copyright.PENANAmKrxwNgKkh
When the boy said this, the black haired teen took in a breath, before hesitantly starting to talk.947Please respect copyright.PENANA8TeeABbK09
947Please respect copyright.PENANAQdgoWFLTzg
"My parents are both really strict and are complete jerks who don't understand me, and yell at me and get on to me about every little thing, and I'm tired of it. I don't have any friends, save my boyfriend who just slapped me and yelled at me before breaking up." He explained snappily, and he could feel the tears welling up in his eyes again.947Please respect copyright.PENANAzCsSm8pnk4
947Please respect copyright.PENANAop2i6naR0N
The brown haired boy frowned at him. "I'm sorry to hear that. Does...your parents know...? I mean, that your gay?"947Please respect copyright.PENANADRusIArcxM
947Please respect copyright.PENANANX6dQ7IWxw
"Yeah...and honestly, they barely accepted me for it." The black haired teen muttered, taking another bite of his cake...it tasted like chocolate and it was so amazing. It basically melted in his mouth too. And the hot tea went well with it.947Please respect copyright.PENANARkwiNLfV3q
947Please respect copyright.PENANA3MB5QaTZxU
"Well, at least they kinda accepted you." The brown haired teen told him with a gentle smile, standing up and pulling some money out of his pocket and laying it down on the table before starting to walk out of the building.947Please respect copyright.PENANAB1lqtOe1bk
947Please respect copyright.PENANAhhs2zRplzt
"Hey, what about you?" The black haired boy quickly asked, standing up and almost knocking the entire table down in his haste.947Please respect copyright.PENANAmIzyy0gErg
947Please respect copyright.PENANALVV8sa77Yb
Then the other teen smiled at him. "Oh, I ran away. My parents couldn't accept me, and I was constantly being used by other boys. Nice talking to you, Stranger."947Please respect copyright.PENANAr1LjXPHrpT
947Please respect copyright.PENANA1ngiD1XBGh
And with that, the teen left, the black haired teen staring after him.947Please respect copyright.PENANA1WZltQucS1
He felt better, really, but he also felt...strange. Maybe he should chase that boy.947Please respect copyright.PENANANky68Gbv0a
947Please respect copyright.PENANAyAONOSHDPB
So, with that decided, he ran out of the restaurant. But when he was outside, he didn't see anyone in sight.947Please respect copyright.PENANArzxfpJY1mN
947Please respect copyright.PENANAavcBi36viX
The teen was gone, like he was never there in the first place.
